Welcome to Root River Veterinary Center

Root River Veterinary Center began operation in 1981; at that time we treated predominantly livestock and the occasional pet. A lot has changed in the past 30 years including our perspective on pet healthcare! In 2011, Root River Veterinary Center became the only veterinary clinic in Fillmore County that is focused exclusively on providing healthcare for cats and dogs. We have extensive training in many modalities of pet veterinary care in addition to acupuncture and chiropractic treatments which enables us to provide many options for good health to your pets.

We pride ourselves in providing adequate time for each and every appointment. Your pet will receive a healthcare plan that has been individualized just for them. Every effort will be made to make your trip to the veterinarian a pleasant experience for both you and your pet. People often call us "Their pet’s Favorite Vets". We would like the opportunity to be "Your Pet’s Favorite Vets" too.

Thank you for visiting, we hope that you spend some time exploring this site. If you have questions that you would like to discuss, please telephone us at 507-765-2117 during regular business hours.
